he likes my cooking!

Sam’s low energy and not eating kinda started to freak us out. It can’t be happening this quickly can it? Wait… maybe he just doesn’t like this new fishy kibble and feels like crap because he isn’t eating… well I can fix that.

Last night dinner was fresh salmon, cheddar cheese omelet with eggs from the girls. Mixed into the kibble. I hand fed it to him and he spit the kibble out but he ate the eggs. Okay, I happen to have an egg factory in my garden… eggs it is. Oh, and he ate half of my tenderloin steak that the hunny cooked for us after the omelet. But he ate it all.

This am he got the same omelet with only a little kibble sprinkled into it. I had to give him a little by hand, but he ended up eating all of it. Me, i warmed up a day old cup of coffee. That was my breakfast… something about priorities?

He came to work with me today and was much perkier than yesterday. But a little tummy trouble told me it was too much of a good thing.

Tonight he got brown rice and lean hamburger. He helped himself to a whole bowlful and then asked for seconds… then he begged the hunny to let him lick the pot!

So, today was a good day. Here is to hoping for another one tomorrow. I’ve still got salmon in the fridge and eggs in the chickens. What should we cook tomorrow?

Right now he is standing by his bowl asking for more. I think we will go to bed instead. 🙂

Sam was a 10 yr old Golden. We found a mass on his right arm bone on August 17, 2012. Confirmed Sarcoma on August 22, amputation on August 23, post amp biopsy confirmed osteosarcoma. We found lung mets on November 27 and Spirit Sam earned his wings on December 2, 2012. As a retired SAR dog, we were always up for an adventure... We didn't know where we were headed, and we don't regret a single step along our path. My heart left us too soon, but left a legacy of love that we will always cherish.

  1. I’m glad Sam is eating for you. I tried to submit a comment the other day when you posted about Sam’s mets but something happened . . . sorry. My comment was similar to Jackie’s regarding the location. I really do not know if Harley’s lung tumors are mets or primary lung cancer or maybe both, but they are on the peripheral of the lungs and were found in late May when they were already 2 and 4 cm. Sam and you are in my thoughts and prayers always.

  2. Oh Sam, you’ve got your own private chef there, you’re such a lucky dawg!

    Yeah, kibble aint’ so appealing once you’ve had the Cordon Bleu in your kitchen every night. Who can blame us right?

    Love you buddy.

  3. Eat up Sam! Lucky you on the tenderloin and all of the gourmet cooking!
    I hope you have many good days ahead. We’re thinking of you!

    Hunter and family
